Tony Ferguson and Daniel Cormier go off on each other on Twitter
Being a fighter and commentator in the UFC can sometimes put you in an odd position as calling the fights might strain the relationship you have with some of your fellow fighters.
This seems to be the case with Daniel Cormier, who commentated the UFC 216 broadcast and apparently Tony Ferguson who fought Kevin Lee in the main event did not like what Cormier had to say during the broadcast. Ferguson won the UFC interim lightweight title by submitting Lee with a triangle choke in the third round and then fired some tweets at D.C. while interacting with a bunch of fellow Twitter users on Monday
Ferguson: When U Expect A Face Slap & Your Coach Has Too Much Respect To Not Touch Your Face- 😂 WTF lol *Mack* To The Chest

Fan: Post fight comments denying Tony a title shot were hugely disrespectful and misplaced from a guy who should know better.
Cormier: If you would have listened I told you what I thought would happen at the same time saying that it’s not what should happen but would. Iisten
